Chapter 155: You Stepped on My Foot
As soon as the dance music sounded, the whole venue fell silent, although many people had already stared at the dance partner and were eager to try, but according to the unspoken rules, no one dared to go down if the master did not end the scene on this occasion, and the consequences of stealing the limelight of the master were very serious, and everyone's eyes looked at Secretary Tao.
In this era, there were basically no entertainment venues to go to Songjiang, except for the coastal areas, which were the forefront of reform and opening up, and the only place you could go was the dance hall. At this time, ballroom dancing was popular all over the country, and it can be said that the only place where you can have fun is the dance hall. In addition to opening dance halls, people with flexible brains have also set up a considerable number of ballroom dance classes, and each dance hall is overcrowded every night, which shows the influence of ballroom dancing on people during this period.
Secretary Tao knew that everyone was waiting for him, this first dance was supposed to be for him and Miss Jenny to dance together, but his eyes looked at Jenny but saw that she didn't react, as the secretary of the provincial party committee, under normal circumstances, the female companion stepped forward to invite him, and there was no reason for the secretary to invite the female companion, but Jenny is an American who doesn't understand these domestic curves at all, and no one told him what to do at the ball, and it is very normal to have no reaction.
Tao Fei saw the situation on the field clearly at a glance, and walked in front of his father Tao Yong with a light and graceful posture, and stretched out his hand to make an elegant gesture of please. Secretary Tao also knew that Jenny didn't understand the rules of China, and she didn't mean to blame others, so she was very happy to see her daughter Tao Fei come to the rescue, and hugged Tao Fei like a gentleman and walked onto the dance floor.
Jenny very much hoped that today's first dance could be danced with the boss Zuo Jiang, but when Secretary Tao entered the dance floor, Zuo Jiang had no intention of inviting her to dance, and in a hurry, she couldn't care about the arrogance and reserve of the American lady, so she hurriedly walked in front of Zuo Jiang and said, "Dear Mr. Haripo, can you ask me to dance?" ”
Zuo Jiang saw that Jenny didn't take the initiative to ask Secretary Tao for the first dance, so he was secretly anxious in his heart, and he couldn't go over to remind her in front of everyone, but fortunately, Tao Fei relieved this embarrassing situation. Seeing Jenny asking him to ask her to dance, he thought that it would be good to give her a little reminder during the dance. So the gentleman made a gesture of invitation and smiled and said, "Of course, Miss Jenny, may you enjoy the light and dance with me!" ”
Zuo Jiang and Jenny danced gracefully and slid onto the dance floor. attracted the surprised eyes of the audience, Secretary Tao did not invite the American guests to dance, and they naturally did not fight the idea of returning the remaining two golden girls, but fortunately, many beautiful actresses came to the provincial song and dance troupe, and they aimed at the target and stepped onto the dance floor one after another.
Simon and Helen naturally went on the dance floor in pairs, one of his assistants hired Catherine, and the rest of the assistants were invited off the stage by a beautiful actress from the Provincial Song and Dance Troupe. Bai Xiaoyi learned the secret of not Zuo Jiang from Jenny during the fitting period, and she always wanted to confirm it with Zuo Jiang. But there was no chance, I just wanted to take the opportunity to dance with Zuo Jiang to ask him, but Jenny grabbed a step, and when I saw Zuo Jiang and Jenny dancing, a sour feeling surged in my heart. Immediately, my interest was aroused. The CEO of a private enterprise couldn't help but light up when he saw Bai Xiaoyi, the popular program host of the provincial TV station, and asked her to dance because he was young and had a lot of money, but Bai Xiaoyi refused on the grounds that he was not feeling well. This made the boss very embarrassed.
Zuo Jiang hugged Jenny and danced to her while saying to her, "Miss Jenny." There are a lot of things in China that you still don't understand, the first dance on such an important social occasion as today should be danced by you to ask Secretary Tao to dance, because he is the host and you are the guest of honor, in our country is very particular about this kind of etiquette, and you must take the initiative to invite Secretary Tao when the second dance is held for a while. ”
Jenny said, "Why, boss! If that's what you said, why didn't Secretary Tao come and invite me just now. You know, in our Americans, men are very gentlemanly. How can a woman be asked to invite a man? ”
Zuo Jiang explained with a smile: "Miss Jenny, is this the difference in national conditions? We have a saying in China, called the local customs, that is to say, to China to do according to the Chinese way, we are to open a company to seek wealth, of course, to do things to take into account all aspects, harmony can make money, this is not, you are not today to follow the customs of the country, first invite me to dance, it seems that you are very talented in this area! ”
"This ......" Jenny made Zuo Jiang speechless for a while. I thought I really wanted to dance with you so much that I put down my face and invited you, but I didn't expect it to be understood by you like this! But Zuo Jiang is her boss, and she has to do what the boss explains, and what Zuo Jiang said is not unreasonable, and taking the initiative to invite high-ranking Chinese officials to dance is not a shameful thing. Yu Xiangzuojiang nodded and said, "Okay, boss, I will definitely take the initiative to invite Secretary Tao in a while!" ”
Zuo Jiang smiled and said: "Miss Jenny, I'm very happy that you can do this, then you must pay attention, Secretary Tao, Governor Wu and Mayor Shao, you must invite the land, the rest depends on your mood, Secretary Tao will not stay here for too long, if you feel tired after he leaves, you can go back to the room to rest, if you are interested, of course you can play for a while!" ”
Jenny said, "Okay, boss, I got it!" As he spoke, he boldly pressed his body close to Zuo Jiang, and reveled in it with soothing and brisk music.
As soon as the second dance music sounded, Jenny smiled and walked up to Secretary Tao and asked him to dance with him in an elegant manner. Secretary Tao couldn't help but glance at Zuo Jiang appreciatively at first sight, and then walked onto the dance floor with Jenny. The first dance with his daughter is reasonable and reasonable, and no one else can say anything, and the second dance is even more natural to dance with today's guest of honor.
Zuo Jiang's second dance is to ask Tao Fei to dance, the first dance Tao Fei and Tao Secretary dance, Jenny and Zuo Jiang dance, the second dance Jenny and Tao Shu dance, Zuo Jiang asked Tao Fei to dance and straighten it out, and the guests present seemed to realize something in this subtle change, constantly looking at this mysterious teenager.
After the second dance, Secretary Tao shook hands with Jenny and said goodbye, leaving Wu Heping to sit here, Zuo Jiang did not go over to see Secretary Tao, but just nodded from afar, and Tao Fei kept sending his father and others to the gate of the hotel.
Zuo Jiang didn't see Bai Xiaoyi when the first dance song ended, and he didn't see her after the second dance song ended, so his eyes searched for her in the hall, and finally Bai Xiaoyi was sitting in an inconspicuous corner, watching him while drinking red wine, so he walked towards her quickly.
Zuo Jiang walked in front of Bai Xiaoyi and said with a smile: "Sister Xiaoyi, why are you sitting here alone and drinking alcohol, is there something on your mind!" ”
Bai Xiaoyi's eyes lit up when she saw Zuo Jiang walking towards her, Zuo Jiang's face turned cold when she walked in front of her, and when she heard Zuo Jiang say this, she snorted coldly and said, "Stinky boy, I have something on my mind, how about it?" ”
Zuo Jiang looked at Bai Xiaoyi's flickering eyes and knew that she was deliberately giving him a look, and at this time, the third dance music sounded, Zuo Jiang laughed and said, "It's not good, I'm here to invite Sister Xiaoyi to dance!" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to her.
Bai Xiaoyi stretched out his hand and slapped Zuo Jiang's hand to the side, turned his back to Zuo Jiang and said, "I'm not interested, you go and ask your golden beauty to jump!" ”
As soon as Zuo Jiang stretched out his hand, he pulled Bai Xiaoyi up, and said with a smile: "Sister Xiaoyi, flying vinegar can't be eaten indiscriminately, how can it be eaten by the American people!" ”
Bai Xiaoyi's face couldn't help but turn red, and he hurriedly said, "you, I don't have it!" ”
Zuo Jiang smiled and said, "Still say no?" Look your face is red! Oh, come on, let's dance! Half-pushed, half-on-the-spot, Zuo Jiang pulled Bai Xiaoyi onto the dance floor.
When the CEO of the private company who asked Bai Xiaoyi to dance just now saw Bai Xiaoyi dancing with Zuo Jiang with a happy smile, he was so angry that his eyes were about to pop up! But seeing that Bai Xiaoyi's dance partner is Zuo Jiang, who is in the limelight tonight, he dares to be angry but doesn't dare to speak, and he doesn't dare to excuse himself easily, and besides, today's scene is not a place where he dares to be wild, he snorted angrily, left the actress and dance partner of the provincial song and dance who had just made progress, and walked away without looking back.
Bai Xiaoyi slowly moved his dance steps with the music while clinging to Zuo Jiang, and asked Zuo Jiang and said, "Stinky boy, you say, how many secrets do you still have to hide from me?" ”
Zuo Jiang said: "No, Sister Xiaoyi! What secrets can I have as a good young man in the new era? ”
"Humph! Still say no? Bai Xiaoyi pinched the hand on Zuo Jiang's shoulder and said, "Then let me ask you, did you open that Harry Potter Financial Investment Company?" ”
Zuo Jiang said: "Yes! ”
"Then let me ask you again, did you invest in the Harry Potter Hotel?" Bai Xiaoyi asked again.
Zuo Jiang said: "Yes! ”
Bai Xiaoyi asked again: "Did you decide to ask Sister Fei to be the general manager of Harry Potter Hotel?" ”
Zuo Jiang said: "Yes! ”
Bai Xiaoyi said: "Stinky boy, why don't you tell me these things?" ”
Zuo Jiang said with a smiling face: "Sister Xiaoyi, haven't I had time to tell you yet!" ”
"Oops!" Bai Xiaoyi exclaimed and said, "Stinky boy, you stepped on my foot!" ”
